83 is young?

Comparatively.

My father lasted until two weeks before his 90th BD.

I dressed the hair of George Steinbrenner, Mother at a salon in Westlake OH..

She was a classy lady and wore a brooch, that said NY YANKEES...ALL in diamonds and rubies...so beautiful..she shared her recipes with me, and I still have her BUTTERSCOTCH BROWNIES, recipe...
While she was under the dryer I told her I would copy it...she said..’OH NO DEAR CHILD, KEEP IT, MY BAKING DAYS ARE DONE.’

I have such wonderful memories of my working days..loved every day I worked, and it lasted 42 years...Life is Good...

I always enjoyed George Steinbrenner's appearance on that TV show - he always seemed to be "Blown Away"...
